I've experienced the false neutral between 5th and 6th a few times
in the first 600 miles of my ST, but I blame it on lazy shifting on my part.
I've noticed that up shifting is very definite from 1st - 5th, but 5th to 6th
feels like the shift lever barely moves, and I have to be firm with it for a
clean shift.
